Review

From the reviews:

"This book is a collection of the previously published 16 reviews by G.J. Kelly and E. Latzko … that appeared approximately every 2 years in the series, Progress in Botany. … This book is a useful addition for the training of graduate students and post-doctoral associates in research laboratories … . Kelly and Latzko have performed a great service for the field in providing their regular reports that are brought together in this book. … we recommend this book highly … ." (Archie R. Portis Jr. and Govindjee, Photosynthesis Research, Vol. 90 (3), 2006)

"Sixteen review articles describing the carbon side of photosynthesis appeared in volumes 36-66 of the book series entitled ‘Progress in Botany’. … The reviews reprinted in original form in this Volume had various subtitles characterizing the most important pool of information or anniversary. … Every review was accompanied with hundreds of references … . it is a welcome source of information for young scientists who-I hope-will not only look at internet, but also read books printed on paper." (Z. Šesták, Photosynthetica, Vol. 45 (4), December, 2007)
